Pixelated Palette Art Blog

I’ve created a small piece of art that I’ve put into RedBubble.com titled “Candy Chips”. It’s available as a card and it will probably primarily be a promotion piece, as it’s typical “Art by Kinnally”. Therefore at this time I have no intention of making it available as a large giclée print; just cards, brochures and the like.

 If you like the look and the colors of this art, then you will probably also enjoy my award winning piece “Gooey Chocolate Caramel Nougat #1“, posted in this blog on April 26, 2008.

“Candy Chips”: http://www.redbubble.com/people/kinnally/art/1272720-4-candy-chips

This particular artwork was named in honor of the singing group, “The Coasters“. Some of you younger people might not know them but they had some great hits way back when… (way back, way back - click the link and select an album of theirs and you can listen to a few musical excerpts.)

But they also remind me of fabric circles, like my mom and grandmother used to make before they sewed them together to make those wonderful quilts!

The color scheme of this artwork with its rainbow of colors, both muted and bright, works very well and the whole piece comes together in a wonderful harmony. The 3D effect of  each ‘coaster’ and the layering of one on top of the other in a beautiful spiral pattern gives a dramatic look to the art and adds lots of visual interest.

 Comments to date at Imagekind are: Absolutely fabulous! All the Best. - This is my favorite! Very cheerful, lots of motion! - Wow your work is amazing. I love fractals and you have mastered the technique :)  - Fantastic work!  - lovely ! nice colours  - Very cool  - Captivating and mezmerizing image!  - Amazing.

 Needless to say this sort of reaction to my work pleases me very much! I hope you enjoy this as much as they did!

Those of you who haven’t visited my galleries lately at Imagekind may not have seen some of my latest artwork, so I’ll include some of my latest in a few of these blog posts.

 This latest I call “Shellfish Dream” and it took me a few weeks to complete. It was a bit difficult to get the segments exactly how I wanted them to look, and to get the reflections to look as if the surface had some depth to it, almost like porcelain. No such shell exists, as it’s composed of four spirals not one. I hope you enjoy it!

The Mensa Phoenix chapter sent out an image of my artwork Sinuosity #1, along with a little note mentioning my being featured artist for a day at Imagekind, and for the month in my local art league. It goes out to about 600 people and has links to Daniel’s blog “Art That Doesn’t Suck“, Sinuosity, and my main gallery. Alright!!! A little more SEO never hurts.

I’m pleased that artist, writer and online entrepreneur Daniel M. Clark chose one of my pieces, Sinuosity #1 for his art blog, Art That Doesn’t Suck - October 20, 2007, for the week of Oct 20th, 2007. Thank you Daniel!

Here’s a new image that I’m getting very positive feedback about! People seem to enjoy its sleekness and rich look. It’s very stylish. I love this image, and I hope you’ll find it enjoyable too. I’m planning on making more artwork along these lines.

I’m very overdue in keeping this blog up to date. I’ve added several new pieces of artwork to my galleries at http://kinnally.imagekind.com. Please check them out. They are the result of many hours of effort, and I hope you enjoy them!

And I was the Featured member at Imagekind.com for a day! I spotted it accidently one morning. I’m very pleased with this as there are so many artists to choose from at Imagekind and they have to really like your art in order to be selected. Have a great day!

Check out Kevin Wong’s photography at his Imagekind gallery!
His screen name at imagekind is kgwphotography.
Kevin states “My fine art photography tends towards minimalist abstracts, diptychs, and photomontages. I focus on graphical elements, bold colors, and strong geometrics, trying to seduce the viewer into seeing a transformation of straw into gold.

Born in NYC, the green grass yards and farmland sandboxes of Princeton Junction, NJ is where I grew up. My first camera was my dad’s old 35mm Nikomat. All it took was a high school photo course for me to realize that photography was the perfect outlet for my creative self-expression (seeing as how my drawing skills are limited to stick figures and I prefer reading comics as opposed to drawing them). I survived the cold climate of Ithaca’s harsh winters and graduated Cornell with a B.A. from the School of Arts and Sciences.”
Kevin’s work has been displayed in several exhibits including:
JURIED GROUP EXHIBITS
Sept 2007 Gallery 125, Trenton, NJ “Shoot” (upcoming)
June 2007 Gallery 125, Trenton, NJ “Sizzle”
April 2007 Gallery 125, Trenton, NJ “Art in Bloom”

His work is unusual, unique and clever. Take a look at his galleries and give yourself a treat.

 The previous white rhino art has drawn several positive responses; I’m glad to see that people enjoy it. Framed artwork is available at http://kinnally.imagekind.com. The thumbnail is a bit dark, but the finished product looks a lot nicer.

 I wish I had some black rhino art to add; a matched set would be nice. I’ll have to work on that if I can find the time. If you like rhinos, be sure to look at the t-shirts, hats, coffe mugs, etc. at http://www.cafepress.com/rhinokingdom.

I’ve added two different images of a water lily to http://www.pixelatedpalette.com; they are digital mosaics. I’ve also added artwork of some gazinias. I hope you’ll like them.

Take a quick look here: http://www.pixelatedpalette.com/uniqueartgiclees/mosaicart.html

 I’m doing some work on some truly unique art pieces that I hope to have in place in a few weeks (it takes days just to render each one).

 Best regards!
